Nominate a colleague for the 2024 Emerging Leader in Atomic Spectroscopy Award!
The Emerging Leader in Atomic Spectroscopy Award recognizes the achievements and aspirations of a talented young atomic spectroscopist who has made strides early in his or her career toward the advancement of atomic spectroscopy techniques and applications.
The award will be given to a researcher who has focused the majority of his or her work in the field of analytical atomic spectroscopy, with direct contributions to inorganic mass spectrometry (MS), optical emission spectroscopy (OES), laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), atomic fluorescence spectroscopy (AFS), and/or X-ray techniques through original research on the development or advancement of theory, instrumentation, measurement techniques, or applications.
The winner must be within 10 years of receiving his or her PhD in the year the award is granted. The winner is chosen by an independent scientific committee.
A list of past winners can be found here.
